Admin can you multi board? I made the mistake of bumping the predictor league article and it used up my multi board for the day

If I recall correctly we raise about £1,000

My view is we should pick one cause and give it to that. More meaningful and we can change year to year.

I'd go for the hospice this year for very obvious reasons.

fwiw

I just donate every year but I vote 1 for this year. So many places need cash,its a disgrace, but feel only right after yesterday's news more involved voices may differ!

If I can give my tuppenceworth, and feel free to ignore, but I would hope that Ricksen's awful situation has cast light on the hospice and the good work they do and they'll see a significant boost to their fundraising this year, which will help them massively.

For that reason I'd suggest sticking with the children's hospital, who will still need the money and may especially need it this year if folk are gifting elsewhere.

Either way I think it's a terrific bit of work you're doing and they're both terrific causes.

I vote for number 1. The Airdrie hospice 👍

I don`t attend the charity matches but do donate,I`d like 50/50 split this year helping both out whatever the outcome you`ll still get my donation.

I think we tend to raise between 1000 and 1500,i is that correct?

If it's over 1000 then a split perhaps as i guess the Hospice Ricksen is in will already receive loads of charitable donations due to his condition and there being a lot of focus around it.

Happy to go with the majority decision though, either way, it's going to a good cause.

What dates are we thinking this year for the game?

25th May or 1st June probably the best dates?

It's around £1500 we raise each year. One year was £2k another was around £1300

I mentioned a few last night and will look at it early Feb but

May 18th (final league games on 19th)
June 1st
June 8th
June 15th
June 22nd

Generally we have it earlier. May 25th is Scottish Cup Final day

I'd vote for the hospice as a one off. They need to raise £80k every week just to keep the doors open.

Fernando being in might give them a short term boost but won't make a difference in the great scheme of things.

Those last 3 dates in June are no good for me as that’s when we’re planning on going on holiday.

May or 1st of June please

Maybe change the article to vote for stars 1, 2 and 3 relevant to the options you've given with them being the deciding factor?

Yeah fair point

5 stars for Hospice

3 stars for Split

1 star for Children's Hospital

Too hard a choice

I say split between the two .

What about the just give for killie to sign Greg Stewart ?

Or for Celtic to sign a fcking right back

Ye know, the real important ones

I actually like the idea of the split.

Donating to people at the start and end of their life is very fitting.

Cradle to grave just like what the NHS used to be about.

Regardless happy to contribute to any 3 of them
